That looks like it's at the Nurburgring! The orange tail lights would suggest it's in Europe also. I think I see Brembo logo's on those brakes! Sweet, it has a roll cage too (obviously for testing). They still haven't taken that damn trailer hitch off yet though.

Thanks. I have unfortunately seen f-bodies hauling trailers before but, I never knew they would test for that.

Interesting. Testing at Nurburgring (For Chevrolet) usually means they're about 85% through development, and it's well on it's way to the sales floors within 6 months.
